Original subtitles

Helix.

SandStorm.

Prove it.

Did you bring it?

Did you bring it?

Keep it cool and dry.

We shouldn't contact each other on the forums anymore.

Kill the trail here.

He's taken care of.

- Copy. - Thanks.

You know how to handle that?

I-it's safe to walk around with, right?

Stable. Wouldn't call it safe.

What does that mean?

That means don't drop it, don't shake it,

don't expose it to heat, don't get it wet.

I know what I'm doing, asshole.

- She's pleasant. - I can tell.

Reminds me of your girlfriend.

This is what I asked you to build, right?

I did a lot of research.

To your exact specifications.

Then we're good.

Long as you don't take it through a metal detector.

Trevor, don't scare her away.

Why do you care?

Because I made it.

You do something stupid

and blow yourself up trying to get through security...

Easy.

...might come back on me.

You don't have to worry about that.

- I should go after her. - Don't do it.

Marcy's right. We don't want to push her too hard.

I'm not trying to push her at all,

but that's the mission that the Director assigned us.

Just have to try again.

Agent MacLaren.

Congressman Bishop. We meet again.

You met my host.

We never actually met, because you improvised.

Almost got yourself killed in the process,

and left me stranded waiting for another team.

Gee, I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

There was an extenuating circumstance.

Always is with you.

I'm amazed you're assigned any missions at all, let alone this one.

This one?

Well, I'm assuming it's not just to drive you around.

Your mission is to perform an assassination.

Of who?

Me.

Hi, Chloe.

It's your boyfriend!

Babysitting my little sister today.

Do you want to play Space Kabob?

He's not your boyfriend, he's mine.

You can play, though, if you don't tell Mom.

Wanna play something else?

I can't stay. I just came for some drops.

Mmm, you're burning through 'em fast.

We are.

That's fair.

Maybe we can play a little.

Hi, this is David. Leave a message.

It's open.

Hey.

Hey, hey, leave that.

I'm no stranger to moving furniture.

Yeah, I know, but you shouldn't be overdoing it.

Part of my deal with Nicole is to redecorate this place while she's gone,

which looks like it could be a while, by the way.

She's loving it in London, so, yay.

You really like it here, huh? This space?

Are you kidding? It's the kind of place I fantasized about living in,

till I met you.

You don't think I'd go for something like this?

No.

Huh.

There's a unit for sale in this building.

Let's put in an offer.

I'm serious.

But you love our old house.

It's a house.

Without you living there, it's an empty house.

I say we downsize.

With the baby coming, I need more space, not less.

Ohh. Come here.

Can you feel that?

I can't believe we're doing this.

What?

You said "we."

I got all excited.

I'm not ready for you to move in, Grant.

Well, a house doesn't get sold in a day.

And we're leaving the other one behind either way, right?

Just... thinking about the future.

Just...

Maybe I should have gone after her.

She comes to this cafe almost every day just after ten.

Okay, she's coming down Bellwood. She's close.

She stopped just outside.

Copy.

What are you doing here?

-Huh? -Are you following me?

How? I've been here for two hours.

-Are you following me? -No.

That's my spot.

I was here first.

Sit there.

-Whatever. -Whatever.

Can I help you... SandStorm?

Sounds so stupid when you say it out loud.

Yeah, it does.

I'm Trevor.

Abby.

Galston Agriculture fan?

Mnh-mnh. Not a fan, definitely.

Why?

They stomp out the competition,

they stall unions, file nuisance claims,

fund anti-environmental lobbyists.

Other than that, they're model corporate citizens.

Okay, it's way worse than that.

Look at the bottom.

"Seed C589,

scheduled for limited release and production.

Patent pending." That's all it says.

It's an experimental crop that's able to extract more nutrients from the soil

in order to yield a larger harvest by 20 to 30 percent.

What's wrong with that?

It's never been tested in the field.

They don't know the limits of how many nutrients

C589 will pull from the soil.

It's not about sustainability. It's about profit,

and for the sake of a few years of record harvests,

this crop can decimate all the farmland that it grows in.

A famine isn't just some biblical event.

No, I know, it happens.

They already have a prototype strain ready to go.

When?

This week.

Well, it would have to pass FDA regulations.

Not if Bill 939 gets passed, which allows corporations

to bypass the regulatory process for standard testing.

They want to get it to market ahead of the competition.

How do you know all this?

Not here.

Jeff?

Anyone home?

I was excited when I got the internship.

I thought I could take 'em down from the inside, you know?

I wrote to our Congress. I wrote to our senator.

I sent reports to the FDA of their violations.

I even tried blackmailing one of their private investors.

You go, girl.

You did not just say that.

Uh, anyway, I just got moved from the labs down to the basement,

so all I do now is archive old paperwork.

So, I'm not waiting around anymore.

What does that mean?

I still have access to the building,

and I have what I need to do something about it.

That's some serious shit you're talking, Abby.

It's also a big job for one person.

I can do it.

You don't think I can do it?

You're not hearing me.

And while House and Senate Democrats

are deeply divided on the bill,

Congressman Ted Bishop has taken a hard stand against it,

vowing to fight it.

We are gonna stop Bill 939. We are gonna get the Senate to hear us,

and we will strike down this destructive bill.

And we will succeed.

This is it.

Whoa.

Holy shit.

Place is...

- Hey. - Hello.

Abby, Philip-- my hacker friend I was telling you about.

Oh, what'd he say?

Uh, you're the best, I can trust you, and you want to help.

There's so much more to me.

-You guys live here? -Mi casa.

I still have a room at my parents' house, but I'm here a lot.

Just the two of you?

And Poppy.

His pet turtle.

You know they can carry salmonella bacteria, right?

- Noted. - Okay.

Our system is completely secure,

so go ahead and plug in.

No shame in a little porn. I won't judge.

Rule 34.

She's hilarious. Where'd you find her?

She found me.

These are the project work files on C589 I managed to swipe.

I've gone through some of it, but a lot of it's encrypted.

What's the timeline we're working on here?

The Bill 939 vote is tomorrow.

Galston won't waste time.

The labs are always empty between eleven and one for lunch.

That's our window.

Well, the heartbeat sounds good.

The kidney, liver, brain, all developing very well.

This is just what we want to see at this stage.

Now, there was one area of concern that we saw,

this, uh, dark spot here, just behind the placenta.

What is it?

Uh, too early to say for sure,

but we would be concerned if it were a blood clot.

Have you experienced any spotting,

any contractions recently?

-No. -What would a clot mean?

It could be the early signs of a placental abruption.

But it could be nothing.

Yeah, absolutely, absolutely.

There's no need for either of you to worry at this time.

But given your age and your history, we're gonna--

we're gonna keep a close eye on this.

So, best to make an appointment with my office,

come back and see me in two weeks.

Okay?

The-the doctor said it might not be anything.

I know what the doctor said,

and I've been through this before.

That's not gonna happen this time.

That's not in your power.

Oh, shit!

I left my phone in there.

Wait for me in the car. I'll be two minutes.

Thank you.

Marcy.

You got a minute? I didn't want to have this conversation over comm.

What?

I need a favor.

Yeah, of course.

One that breaks protocol.

I need you to understand, this happened the night

we were all under the effect of the antitoxin...

which you don't remember.

We briefed you on the Helios mission.

This was the night after. We were all affected.

Okay.

Well, my wife had helped arrange a surprise party for me,

and I didn't realize the effect the drug was having.

I consumed too much alcohol.

You broke protocol four.

And that puts her at, what... 20 weeks?

Something like that.

But this is not her fault.

No, it isn't. It's yours.

-I know. -What were you thinking?

I... wasn't, obviously.

All right, it'll probably still be best if you took her to a clinic.

Procedure's safe, even at this stage.

She's going through with it.

It's her decision to make.

-Well, talk her out of it. -I'm not gonna do that.

No, we... we just came from the ultrasound.

There's a problem. It's a placental abruption.

Yeah.

That's serious in any century.

Yeah, but you could improve her odds of carrying the baby to term, right?

There's a drug I could technically synthesize, yes,

but you know that I can't do that.

I'm asking you to think about it.

I need to get back to work.

-Hey, Marcy. -Dr. Barker.

Uh, so is he your, uh...

My boyfriend?

No.

Excuse me.

Would you like to go to dinner sometime?

Sure. When?

How about-- how about this weekend?

How about now? I just gotta go change.

Oh...

Okay, then.

I'll be giving my speech from here.

Yeah, that's a decent vantage point.

From which to shoot me?

That's why we're here.

I was told there'll be a distraction at 11:27 a.m.

We're aware of that.

It's blocks away, but the sound should carry.

Why don't you check out your spot?

You all right?

This is plan "B."

My original mission from the Director was a little more long-term.

Rise in the ranks of government, maybe high office.

Unfortunately, my host has a heart condition the Director wasn't aware of.

You've still done great things as a congressman

that your host wouldn't have done.

Been paying attention, have you?

Felt I had a vested interest.

The Director has fattened me up like a lamb being led to the slaughter.

All I've done in the short time I've been here

is set myself up to become a martyr!

We all have our part in the grand plan.

Yeah, yeah, it is what it is.

Oh, I want to ask, that woman in the stasis field--

what was she to you, worth risking your life for?

Someone I care about that was not supposed to be on the plane that day.

She made it?

Yeah, she did.

Well, that makes one of us.

It'll be quick, right?

-Thank you. -Thank you.

Uh...

to courage.

Courage.

So, what drew you to health care?

God, that is an awful question to lead with.

I am so sorry.

No, it-- it's fine.

No, it's, uh...

I... don't know what it is about you.

You're so...

At some point, I'm going to need you to finish that sentence.

Every male in the hospital would be jealous of me if they knew where I was.

This must be a really good restaurant.

I mean...

with you, obviously.

Ah, well, I-I got into health care

because in the future, it's gonna be more important than ever.

I know.

I mean, we're just on the cusp of so many amazing things.

Mmm. Why'd you become a doctor?

Um...

Similar reasons to you, really.

I want to be part of the changes that are coming.

I mean, think-think of what we're able to do now

that we couldn't even ten, fifteen years ago--

you know, brain mapping, stem cell research,

robotically assisted surgeries,

limitless ways to help people.

I mean, isn't that what it's all about?

You have a very positive view of the future.

Yeah, don't you?

I do.

Here you go.

Thanks.

What are you writing?

It's like a mission statement.

I want people to know why we're doing this.

You don't think that bombing a research lab makes a statement?

I don't want people to think that I'm some radical.

-There's a point to this. -That's why we're helping you.

I been doing some reading.

C589 is worse than you think.

How?

There are properties in the mutation of the seed that are monophyletic.

Mono what?

Means that the organisms descend from the same common ancestor,

in this case the kudzu,

a weed known for completely taking over a territory.

So, if farmers start using C589...

Not only will it deplete the soil of nutrients,

it will spread... rapidly.

With its genetic resistance to pesticides,

C589 could become impossible to contain.

He's right.

All arable land on the planet could be choked out in decades.

You guys really know your shit.

I don't really have a life outside the Internet.

And I'm getting an "A" in biology.

No, thank you.

Nuh-unh.

I spent many years very, very close to an old person

who had to fight for every breath he took.

Trying to ruin this for me?

Nah. You're an intelligent person.

You can make your own decisions.

So, what do we do now?

We can look at the stars.

Nah, there's too much light pollution.

I can only see one.

Sirius.

Oh.

There-there's another one.

That's Mars. It's a planet.

I defer to your astronomy expertise.

Astrology, unfortunately.

My mom was into it.

She based all her decisions, all her relationships on bullshit,

like whether Jupiter and Mars were aligned.

Ugh.

Most belief systems are just a shared vocabulary

for people in search of meaning.

I think maybe the important thing is to just believe in something.

You mean something spiritual.

Something.

I don't believe in anything.

Yeah, you do.

You believe in humanity.

You believe that our future's at stake.

That's not spiritual.

Yeah, it is.

God! Who are you?

I mean, where were you when I was in high school?

Would have been nice to have at least one interesting person to talk to.

Well, I'm kind of an old soul.

Yeah, no kidding.

I like it.

I, uh...

I should get back in there and see if Phil...

Yeah.

...see if Philip needs help finishing up.

So...

Don't light up while I'm gone.

Good to go.

You remember when Hall said,

"Don't think the future doesn't get its hands dirty"?

I know how you feel.

But we knew going into this

that there's some parts of history we can't change.

Some people still have to die.

Doesn't mean I have to like it.

We will not be shut down!

Just say no to 939!

Say yes to our futures!

Morning, Congressman.

MacLaren.

Not much of a turnout.

It's more important the event's covered by the news outlets,

and they're all here.

-You know, for what it's worth-- -It's worth nothing.

It's a life, thrown away on the vague hope that one man's death can turn a tide.

I wish I'd never volunteered.

But here I am.

You are going through with this?

Don't worry, I'll play my part, however pathetic it might be.

Then again, you might just change the world.

I know the Director believes that.

Five minutes.

Bishop's ready.

I'm in position.

Me too. All set.

Device is set for 11:27,

so when you have it in place here on the second floor--

I flip the engagement switch and get the hell out of the building.

You got it.

All right.

Okay. Here we go.

You good?

Yeah.

Yeah.

I should go.

So, we'll, uh, be right here the whole time.

See you soon.

Thank you.

Thank you all for coming.

We are gathered here at a defining moment

in the history of our country.

Today, the Senate will vote on Bill 939...

which at its core, institutes provisions

that seeks to diminish corporate environmental accountability.

Let's have a look in the briefcase.

Could you open it for me, please.

And, as your Congressman, I stand here as

a comrade in arms,

ready to fight against irresponsible policies

brought forth to the Senate

that seek to place short-term profits

ahead of the health and well-being

of our planet.

I don't like it, either.

I can't do it.

What?

I changed my mind. This isn't what I want.

Let's go.

No, no, no, you need to trust the plan.

I don't. I'm not doing it. I don't know what I was thinking.

Abby.

Abby, it's got to be done.

Fuck that!

What's changed?

You.

Okay, it's you guys.

I mean, you've completely opened my eyes to a possible--

Traveler 0115...

Oh, no, no!

...complete the mission in place of Abigail Paris immediately.

Oh, shit.

Help me.

-Why would the Director do this? -Because she was supposed to die.

-What are you doing? -Protocol one.

Bye.

Trevor!

Boss, we have a problem.

What?

We have less than a minute, and the bomb's gonna blow.

We're in position. What's the problem?

Trevor's the one taking it in.

What?

Goddamn it.

Trevor, what are you doing?

Abby went messenger.

Traveler 0115, complete the mission, that's what it said.

Who cares what it said!

We'll find another way.

Trevor!

Trevor!

Trevor!

We're down to seconds! We don't have time!

That's enough.

Both missions depend on this happening.

So long, guys.

Boss, help me out here!

Trevor, you know what to do.

What?! No!

Come on!

This... is a unique time in human history.

Humanity is at a tipping point.

This is a time when people of the future will ask,

"Did you act, or did you stand idly by?"

Where's the diversion?

Stand by.

Trevor, it's time.

Boss, it won't detonate.

Where were you when it was us or them?

Because we must protect...

He's having a heart attack.

Call it now.

He's dying anyway.

We...

must protect humanity's future...

regardless of our political beliefs...

regardless of our religion...

the color of our skin...

regardless of personal cost.

He won't die a martyr if he has a heart attack.

This is the whole point.

He won't make it out.

I got your back. Take the shot.

And now is the time for--

There! Over there, I saw the shooter!

Get in.

Keep your head down.

Stand back!

Make some room!

He's gone.

What took you so long?

We, uh, we had to take care of Abby's body before we came back.

So, what went wrong?

It was deactivated remotely.

By me.

What?

I wasn't gonna let him die for nothing.

Like Abby.

It wasn't for nothing, or we wouldn't have been given the mission.

Galston's competition is weeks away from their own prototype.

And come on, people.

Ted Bishop's assassination isn't going to inspire a movement.

That's not for you to decide.

Well, I did. And it's done.

We could easily have lost one team member to save another.

Without that diversion, Carly was completely exposed after she fired.

-You hung me out to dry. -And I see you made it.

That's not the point, Philip! You undermined a direct order!

Like the order the Director gave you?

'Cause if memory serves-- and, hey, it usually does...

you were given an explicit order, "Kill 3468."

But, hey, maybe she just hasn't gotten around to it.

This isn't funny.

You look me in the eye and tell me

I am the only one on this team who has improvised.

Tell me.

I am the only one that's broken the rules.

I can hack into Galston

and wipe all their data on C589.

And we can even get another bomb in there.

But there are other ways to do this.

And if we get that mission, then that's what we'll do.

It's out of our hands now. Protocol five until further notice.

I should add,

despite my apparent protestations to the contrary...

I'm very glad you're still alive.

Thank you.

You too.

Mac.

Give me one of her folic acid pills.

If we're going to swap one medication to prevent a miscarriage,

they'll need to look identical.

I-I didn't think you were gonna do this.

I'm a doctor. I help people.

I took that oath first.

You know, technically that's not--

Okay, then. I'm improvising.

Thank you.

Hey.

Can I get a ride?

Sure.

Van's out front.

Where to?

Honestly, I don't really feel like going home.

I know just where that is.

Come on.

Kat?

Kat, you home?

Hey, perfect timing. I was just thinking about you.

You okay?

Yeah.

Long day.

Come on.

We'll be in my room. Answer the phone if Mom calls.

-Chloe! -Okay!

Ready?

How did you even find this place?

They're turning this old government building into condos soon.

Jeff brought me here to look at the view.

Hmm.

Wants to buy one.

Seems like this address might be a little out of your price range.

Everything he likes is a little out of our price range.

Likes to dream, that man.

So... you two.

We three.

The child is why we're doing this. That's the only reason.

Is it?

He did stop drinking.

I got a zero tolerance thing going.

We both love that boy, so...

Hmm. I met a guy.

You did?

Doctor.

Well, at least you have something in common.

I don't know. I don't really think there's anything there.

Galston Agriculture's that way.

Trevor.

Trevor, where are you?

Come in!

Trevor!

Sorry, I was visiting my parents. Couldn't talk.

You guys see that?

Yeah, we saw it. Had to be Galston.

Someone just completed our mission.

Traveler 3326,

open memory chain 71985VX and store the following sequence:

Biosynthesis of the glycoproteins IgE, IgM, IgD, IgA, IgG.

Cleave HA protein to form HA-1, HA-2,
